SUBJECT: Purchase of a New Copy Machine for the
Engineering Department
DATE: May 2, 2006
INTRODUCTION:
This agenda item is for Council to consider authorizing City staff to purchase a new copy
machine.
BACKGROUND:
The 2006 Engineering Budget includes $8,500.00 for a new black-line machine to make
copies of large plan sets. The Engineering Department has a greater need for a copy
machine thatis capable of copying multiple sets of specifications and reports at one time.
Currently, Engineering staff is using the fax machine or going to City Hall to make
copIes.
Reduced plan sets has become the industry standard, therefore, the need to make copies
of large sets of plans has been reduced. When copies of large sets of plans are required,
City staff can utilize the blue-line machine at City Hall.
City staff has obtained quotes to purchase anew copy machine and is requesting
authorization from City Council to purchase a copy machine from Crabtree Companies
for $8,573.25.
ALTERNATIVES:
1. Authorize appropriate City staff to purchase a copy machine from Crabtree
Companies for $8,573.25,
2. Deny staff s request.
3. Table for additional information.
RECOMMENDATION:
Authorize appropriate City. staff to purchase a copy machine from Crabtree Companies
for $8,573.25.
ACTION REQUESTED:
Authorize appropriate City staff to purchase a copy machine from Crabtree Companies
for $8,573.25.
